[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, there is no grey zone in ADOS/ADI-R. You either have ASD or not. Mine made it by a point.[/quote] There may be a cutoff score, but there is always a gray zone in diagnosis. Kids behave differently on different days, in different conditions, at different ages. ASD is a spectrum. In addition, the ADOS has a bunch of subscales, and the total score is less useful (particularly for a child who is right at the cutoff) than the subscale scores. Not saying it is not a helpful instrument, but it is not the gold standard, nor is it a 100% reliable indicator of autism.[/quote]
